design your own art project

​Peter Oles9th grade Animas High SchoolArtist statement: I chose to design a concept car for my design your own art project. I chose to do this because I have always had an interest in motor vehicles. I decided to make a hybrid for those people who are not able to decide between a sporty car and a useful, four door hatchback. I took the basic design from two select vehicles made by Chevy. They were the Camaro and the Suburban. I decided that the best engine for it would be the engine that comes stock with a Chevy Tahoe which with the given weight of the car and HP of the engine will make about 20 Mpg. ​

logo project

In the logo project, we were set loose with almost no guidelines and had to make a logo for ourselves. This was fun except for the very beginning when I had almost no idea what I was going to do. During the project I learned to just let it flow until the logo looked good to me. It didn't matter about if I was taking off someone else's ideas a little or if I was just winging it, which is what i ended up doing after looking for inspiration in some other logos and not finding any. I think I enjoyed this project because what I walked away with at the end of it was that I knew that I was a much more creative person than I thought I was.
